How to fade in and out a song on iTunes?

Question:

Dan asks: how to fade in and out songs on iTunes?

Answer:

iTunes allows you to easily fade in and out songs, so you can play tracks from your playlist without interruptions (effect also known as crossfade). This is easily executed from the iTunes library, and here’s how:

• Open your iTunes
• Click on Edit and then choose preferences
• Navigate to the Playback tab
• Click the crossfade box, and set the crossfade interval (between 1 to 12 seconds) using the slider
• Hit OK

iTunes will now apply your crossfade settings to all the iTunes library songs.
